Closer

Playing catch up on a summer night
Doubting you'll stay up past your bedtime
Level's underground and you can't reach
Maybe if you'd tried to stick with it
I wouldn't have to be so mean to you

All the conditions like we are in court
Fighting for freedom I think it's uncalled for
You said I'm holding you back
All I wanted was you closer

I will pack my bags, no way home
All the lights are off
What a joke
Say it with your chest, you're regretting it

Running down the road just to shout
Wishing you would get my hurt now
But it's difficult
Cause you're not in it with me

I, I just can't reconcile
That you, you'd just give up this time
Didn't someone teach you to be gentle?
You used salt instead of a disinfectant
Don't ask why I'm unrecognisable now

All the conditions like we are in court
Fighting for freedom I think it's uncalled for
You said I'm holding you back
All I wanted was you closer

I will pack my bags, no way home
All the lights are off
What a joke
Say it with your chest, you're regretting it

Running down the road just to shout
Wishing you would get my hurt now
But it's difficult
Cause you're not in it with me

Nobody believed me that it was possible
Cause you're always so responsible

Fooled my family
But you said it was an accident
What did I do to deserve it then?

I will pack my bags, no way home
All the lights are off
What a joke
Say it with your chest, you're regretting it

Running down the road just to shout
Wishing you would get my hurt now
But it's difficult
Cause you're not in it with me
